Before Sunset

I saw Before Sunset tonight, and it was just perfect.... a really well-done film that absolutely fit my mood in the way that only the best crafted movies ever do. I am thinking of going to Europe later this year or early next, and now I am super jazzed by this clever little jewel of a flick (and also the fact that I picked up a Louis Vuitton Paris CityGuide in a thrift store for twenty-five cents today - currently debating my boyfriend over whether we should swear our allegience to Cafe Flore or Les Deux Magots). The film's charms are sort of hard to explain, aside from: Nina Simone references, the Paris setting, flirting with the possibility of life's promise being fulfilled, and re-discovering a part of yourself that you thought was lost. Dazzling in an unexpected way.
